Portal 2 DLC Detailed: Free Challenge Mode & New Chambers

A few days ago, we brought you the news that Valve were gearing up to deliver a new DLC pack for runaway hit Portal 2 this summer. They've now made with the details - and in a move that will delight even the staunchest Metacritic haters, it will be absolutely free across all platforms.

Currently (and unimaginatively) billed as "Portal 2 DLC #1," this content pack will reportedly contain plenty of new test chambers, leaderboards, a challenge mode for singleplayer and co-op and "more." It will be free on PC, Mac, PS3 and even the Xbox 360 - and is set for release this summer. Naturally we'll let you know when a firm release date has been announced. [CVG]
